Our Family Valentine..

We had a wonderful time as a family this weekend!
Friday- We had family movie night and watched "Open Season 2".
Saturday- The boys got up and got their treats from Mommy & Daddy-cards, candy and movie passes. We went to Krispy Kreme for breakfast and watched them make donuts. We even got to eat heart shaped donuts with sprinkles since it was V-day!We then went to the mall and let the boys pick out their V-day gifts with money from the grandparents.
Sunday- We went to church and then had a camp style picnic in the front yard complete with a firepit, weiners and marshmallows. (The boys had a blast and it did not cost us anything!) Later that night Grandma & Grandpa came over for dinner!
Monday- No school! We went to the zoo with Aunt Kirstin, Gavin and Mylee. The kids had a blast together and saw lots of cool animals (also free since we have annual passes). Afterwards we used our V-day gift cards from Mamaw & Pop for a special lunch at Dairy queen. Yum!
We came home and the boys went out to ride bikes. Aubrey figured out on his own how to ride without training wheels! We have been encouraging him to try for over a year now but when his cousin Gavin did it that was definitely more motivation for him to figure it out. Now we have to work on Eli!
We ended the day with the boys staying with the grandparents while Mommy & Daddy went out for dinner at a new Italian restaurant nearby! It was so good and we probably gained 10 lbs.! We had a nice quiet dinner together to celebrate Valentine's weekend and we did not even have to fight the crowds since we waited!
I am so thankful for my sweet husband and for my 3 little Valentines as well.
